When receiving Shiatsu, you keep your clothes on for the duration of the massage, and no oils or lotions are involved. We use a floor mat wherein both you and your massage therapist remove your shoes, heavy jewelry, and any belts. The massage itself contains softening, stretching, point work, joint rotation, and percussion. These styles are rhythmically performed over the entire body to restore and revitalize you. The full sequence of Shiatsu starts with you lying face down (prone) and ends with you lying face up (supine). At the end of this Shiatsu sequence, your entire body is restored from the top of your head to your smallest toe.
Shiatsu massage has many benefits, the most common being increased energy and circulation, a relaxed body and mind, and a feeling of overall balance. What drew me to this type of massage modality above all others was its effectiveness in helping and healing all body types, no matter the physical condition or state (unless extremely terminally ill or suffering from a disease that would be negatively enhanced due to this type of massage). It is a non-invasive, energizing, or relaxing massage, which leaves you satisfied whether you are in optimal health or ill health. Shiatsu helps you heal yourself with the aid of a massage therapist, and more than anything in the world, I enjoy being that aid.
